    Ha - thankfully I dont need any today but I've definately been thinking about another project. Brit bikes (my #1 vice) have just got so expensive now that building specials out of them makes little sense.

    When I do - I'll definately be looking globally for parts as I found with the FZR, there were some major savings to be made.

    It makes sense if you can't find a complete bike at reasonable cost....

    Yes and no - a 'quality' rebuild of a 650 / 750 Triumph unit engine can top $5K in parts....

    Sorry folks - things have stalled out a little recently - car repairs and the need to actually make a living . I've been doing some of polishing , getting the carbs finished and lately trying to make the rear sets work properly . I got screwed on the 4-1 exhaust so i will have to make one from scratch - i can't find anything worth buying . Going to get some stuff done this week and hopefully will have some good progress to post soon .

    What is the rear seat-end, looks almost like Yammie TZ.
